I mean... I had not even yet heard the talk that others have pointed you to (from Armin Ronacher); after having gone several times down the rabbit hole of looking at what the interpreter is doing in specific scenarios (and I like lots of things, at the language level, that python does, the terseness and expresiveness that it brings) I also think that python is a very complex language under a soft-looking skin.
- pjmlp 5y agoI follow Python since 1.6, and occasionally use it for portable scripting when on UNIX platforms (PowerShell on Win), and many aren't really aware that Python is Ada/C++ level of complexity, even if on the first contact seems like the new BASIC. Besides the nuances of how everything is executed, there are occasionally breaking changes between minor language revisions. You cannot just pick up a random Python script and be sure it still behaves the same way across all minor revisions.
